Well, a SVN tag could be represented as a Git branch _and_ a Git tag pointing to the head of that branch. Whenever any such "tag branch" advances, the user should be notified, the user responsible for the further commits to the SVN "tag" should be seriously hurt and the Git tag should be overwritten (git tag -f).

Cheers, Sebastian
